This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is ACED100X200 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the ACED100X200 in place of this model. The ACE replacement is a current-production ISO 21287 compact cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class, with a matching short body and the same mounting-accessory family, so it fits the same envelope. Confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before ordering.
Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X200
The AirTAC Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X200 is a double acting, double rod DIN-standard tight/compact air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 200mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a hard-anodized aluminium body. This model is discontinued — the current-production replacement is the ACED100X200 (ISO 21287 ACE), in the same bore, stroke and force class.

About the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X200
This is a double acting, double-rod compact cylinder in the discontinued AirTAC ACPD series: a 100 mm bore with a 25 mm rod leaving both covers, so the 200 mm stroke delivers 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa in either direction because both sides work on the rod-side area. The hard-anodized aluminium body keeps the mounting length roughly half that of an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, which is why it suits tight gantries and machine frames. Note the unit is no longer produced; the current drop-in is the ISO 21287 ACED100X200.
The through-rod is S45C hard-chrome plated and resists rotation and side load, while the rear rod can carry a sensor flag on a pick-and-place axis. At 0.5 MPa the 3681.6 N output corresponds to about 375 kg of thrust, so plan on roughly 225 kg of usable work force and expect around 187 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. A fixed TPU bumper sits at each end, ports are 1/4" PT, speed range is 30-500 mm/s, and the optional -S magnet enables CMSE / DMSE switches when ordered.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC ACP datasheet (now discontinued). The ACED100X200 (ISO 21287) carries the same bore/stroke/force class; confirm mounting-interface dimensions against the ACE datasheet before installation. Rod type: female thread (blank) or male thread (B). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5154 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 751 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

Where the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X200 Is Used
Gantry press station
The 3681.6 N through-rod thrust at 0.5 MPa presses bearings into housings on an automotive subassembly line, with the symmetric rod mount keeping the tooling square over the 200 mm stroke.
Palletizing lift column
Mounted vertically in a warehouse palletizer, the double rod guides a 180 kg lift plate without a separate guide column, using the 1/4" PT ports and a 2:1 margin on the 375 kg thrust.
Bottle crate pusher
On a beverage line, the rear rod carries a sensor flag for CMSE or DMSE switches (with the optional -S magnet) while the front rod pushes crates across a transfer conveyor at 30-500 mm/s.
Replacing the Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X200 with the ACED100X200
At 100 mm bore this is the top of the ACPD range: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa both ways, versus 2356.2 N for the 80 mm bore if you need less thrust, with no larger bore available in the series. The 200 mm stroke sits inside the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Remember that a plain double-rod cylinder drifts when air is lost, so add a rod lock or pilot check for a held load. This model has no magnet; order the -S code if CMSE / DMSE position switches are needed. For new projects specify the ACED100X200, the current ISO 21287 successor, and confirm its mounting dimensions before swapping.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Current-production ACE → ACED100X200
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force class
- ✓ Confirm ISO 21287 mounting dimensions
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Add -S for magnet if you need sensors
Airtac ACPD Double Rod Compact Cylinder ACPD100X200 FAQ
Because a 25 mm rod exits both covers, force is equal both ways on the rod-side area: 3681.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 5154.2 N at 0.7 MPa, with a maximum of 750.8 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-500 mm/s, and the 200 mm stroke is within the 300 mm maximum standard stroke for the 100 mm bore.
AirTAC no longer produces the ACPD family. The current-production replacement is the ACED100X200, an ISO 21287 compact double-rod cylinder in the same bore, stroke and force class. Since the ACP follows the older DIN-standard body, confirm the ISO 21287 mounting dimensions and port positions against your fixture before swapping.
